Ok, to everyone who's reading this, this is a sad story. If you want the full effect of the atmosphere then I suggest u listen to this song. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3aW9ql1ZK3U I do not own this song nor do I claim to, so don't get mad at me. enjoy


The heart is broken. There's no feeling left. As I fall into the darkness I feel nothing but loss, despair, and anguish. Deep sadness runs through my veins and the vast emptiness in my soul. There is no pain, only numbness as I slowly drift deep into this dark hole.

I've lost everything, my love, and I can't get back on my feet. I wish you were here, you'd know how to fix everything. You could put a smile back on my face with just a glance.

"Why did you have to leave me?" I say softly, my voice faulting as tears form in my eyes "why did you have to go? It's not fair".

Each time I close my eyes I see your face, your smile, and your kind red eyes. No living being could ever compare to you, never could anyone replace you. I've shut them out because I couldn't bare the pain of losing another. Not again.

It's getting harder to breathe, the further I go, as the darkness thickens and air around me becomes thin. A slight shiver runs down my spine. Colder too. Maybe, just maybe the longer I am here, the closer I can come to you. We would never be apart again.

Frozen tears run down my cheek as a faint glow appears in the distance.

My new home.

As I get up and try to take a step forward my legs don't budge. I struggle as a sob begins to work its way into my throat and more tears spill down my cheek. As I try to throw myself forward I do nothing but fall to the ground.

I lay there crying and sniffling as a shadowed figure appears in front of me, casting his form over me in the light. Though I cannot see who this person is I know exactly who stood before me. The shape of his mane and the glint of his horns, and those eyes. The eyes that could scare any man, and still comfort the most troubled of people.

His deep red eyes stared down upon my broken form. Those eyes held no compassion or comfort, only disappointment and sadness. I know why too. I must have looked pathetic to him. The pup he once loved and held in his arms, so strong and happy was his soul, now lay broken and lost in the darkness.

Though his time had past he could not help the one he loved so dear. It pained him to see his love cry. It hurt more then he cared to show. He had to be strong for the ones he loved, his family and the little pup who had lost his way.

The light grew brighter for it was his time to go, his time was up. He could no longer stay. He wished hard that he could stay there and look at his love, stay and make him smile once more. As he turned and took a step forward all his pent up emotion came forth. In a single tear that slide down his cheek and fell into the darkness, invisible to anyone.

"Please don't go" I whispered. I knew he could hear me. He always could, no matter how far apart we were.

"Please don't leave me, not again" I said louder as I clawed at the ground, desperate to get to my love. Pulling and twisting, trying to budge the cold, invisible shackles that bound my paws to where they were.

As he begins to walk I see that he has no intention of looking back. My heart sinks even more and my struggles double as I keep trying to get to him.

"DON'T GO!!!" I claw harder.

The closer he came to the light the more it dawned on me that he wasn't going to look back. I was going to lose him, yet again, and there was nothing I could do to stop it. I'll call to him, he'll come back I know it.

"Come back....please don't leave me"I looked down at my paws as more tears ran down my muzzle.

Nothing. He still heads towards the light.

"Say something! Anything! Please just...let me hear your voice" I cried and pleaded as he left me. "please..that's all I want."

As he gets closer to the light I could see him more clearly. He was still wearing the same clothes. His blue denim jeans, slightly blackened on his left leg, and his white tank top, still splattered with blood. As he continued I could barely make out the red at the corner of his muzzle.

His footsteps echoed in the silence. He wore only one shoe, I saw.

His steps faded and a quiet purr come through the darkness. It grew louder and slowly turned into a quiet roar. The sound came closer as the light made my breathe becoming visible in the darkness. My eyes grew wider, for I knew what was coming.

As the roar grew louder and the light quickly approached he turned to me. For what he said was barely audible over the screech of tires. His voice ran faint but I saw his lips close enough to know what he said. It made my heart skip a beat, my blood run cold and my fur to stand on end. Three small word that could change the life of another.

I love you.


"JOOOOOOOHHNNN!!!!!" I screamed as I awoke from my nightmare.

I've had it almost every night since the accident. Each time I had it, it always seemed to get more vivid, more real with each passing night. This time I could make out everything, everything but the driver.

A hit and run is what they called it, but on a count that I couldn't give any detail as to who did it or what the car looked like, they were never able to find out who did it. I felt so lost after they "couldn't do anything else". Bunch of liars.

I get up out of my bed, up out of the cold sweat and broken memory, I head to the bathroom. A shower will do me some good. Wash away the pain, if only for a moment.

I twist the faucet on and adjust the temperature so the water is nice and hot, steam rises in the cold room as I strip down and toss my night clothes into the hamper. As I step into the hot stream of water all of the steam rushes out of the room leaving me shivering, even as my skin turns hot in the water.

As I stood there in the warm rain my mind wondered elsewhere, back to what I saw. He only wore one shoe, and he walked with a slight limp. His fur, in some places, was matted and stained red. The corner of his lip was red as well and it came back to me again. The last time he was with me, the last time he was still here, he was laying on the ground with me over him. There was so much blood, but the look on his face wasn't terror, he wore a smile as he spent his last seconds looking up at me.

His last words were barely audible. He said "I love you" and closed his eyes for the last time.

I woke from my recollection to find that the water had ran cold. My legs cramped from standing still for so long. Must have been there for an hour, only way for the water to get cold.

I get out of the shower and start to towel off as I walk back into my room to boot up my laptop. After drying for ten minutes I log into my email, which I rarely ever check. No one ever sends me anything anyways. No big deal to me.
